Chapter 154 Double-edged Sword
Chapter 154 Double-edged Sword
"General, your calligraphy is really beautiful, like a divine brush, flowing like clouds and water, yet strong and powerful. Can you teach me?"
After the message was passed, Bai Xin walked into Ye Qi's tent. As soon as he entered, he saw him still writing a report at the desk, so he picked up the telescope in his hand and secretly watched him writing from a distance.
Ye Qi raised his lips and glanced at her. After finishing writing in a few strokes, he rolled up the scroll, put away the pen, stood up and walked to her, took down her telescope, held her in his arms, gently lifted her chin with one hand, and gave her a light kiss on the lips.
He looked at her with a smile on his face and said, "Madam, you praise me like this every day. I'm so proud!"
"The general himself is my pride!" Bai Xin looked at him with a smile.
"My wife praises me because she loves me!" Ye Qi gently stroked her nose and said lovingly.
"Ah, General, are you peeking at my book again?"
Their history was different from hers, and ever since he discovered the library in his lab, he had taken it out to read it often, saying that he wanted to catch up with her brain as quickly as possible.
"Didn't Madam also peek at me writing?" Ye Qi retorted with a smile.
"Okay, then we're even!"
Bai Xinqiao looked at him with a sweet smile and climbed up his shoulders with both hands, but she forgot that she was still holding the telescope and accidentally hit him on the head.
"Madam, are you going to murder your husband?" Ye Qi held his head and looked at her in reproach.
"Oh, sorry, let me blow it for you!" Bai Xin said with a guilty smile.
I was so busy joking with him that I forgot about the important matter.
As she spoke, she pulled him to sit on the chair, handed the telescope to him, and carefully rubbed the place where he had just hit.
It was just a light touch and it didn't hurt, but Ye Qi enjoyed Bai Xin's heartache very much. He sat very comfortably and let her massage him while he picked up the telescope to study.
"Madam, you just used this to see me writing?"
Ye Qi asked with a little surprise, because he imitated Bai Xin's way of looking through the telescope and found that the objects in the room were instantly clearly visible at a close distance and magnified several times. Even though he was always calm, he felt very novel.
"Yes, it's done. What do you think, General?" Bai Xin asked while giving him a massage.
"It is indeed novel, but how far can you see?"
"Within five miles, it's clearly visible, and beyond five miles, it's blurry!" Bai Xin explained to him that the technology was limited and they couldn't see too far.
"Madam, do you want to equip me with the ability to see far away?" Ye Qi said as he picked it up and looked at it carefully.
"Yeah, then when are we going to climb up and see the view?" Bai Xin asked tentatively without stopping the massaging movement in his hands.
Ye Qi did not respond when he heard this. He really did not want to take the risk.
"Ye Qi, I know you're worried. Although I can't plan and strategize as well as you do, I also need to have a clear mind to feel at ease."
"I know you don't want me to take risks, but I also want to share your worries. You know I'm not someone who can just sit and wait for peace. I can choose not to go to the battlefield, but I need to know the situation on the battlefield. Otherwise, I won't be at ease!"
Bai Xin spoke leisurely behind him, and turned her hands, which were originally massaging his sore spots, to massaging the acupoints on his head as a way of trying to please him.
"Ok!"
Ye Qi responded reluctantly. Although he didn't want her to take risks, he also understood her. If he didn't let her do it, she would think of other ways. It would be better to do it under his nose so that at least he could watch her.
Although she said that she couldn't disobey him, he had never really been hard-hearted towards her.
"But you need to listen to my command, otherwise, I will really tie you up in the tent and not let you go out!"
This was a warning to her.
"I know. I'll be sensible!" Bai Xin said happily. Then she put her hands across his shoulders and neck, hugged him from behind, and gave him a light kiss on the cheek.
Ye Qi sighed in his heart, he was also a foolish general who was easily deceived by beautiful women.
"Then General, do you think we should release the Xichang prisoners before or after our reconnaissance?"
Bai Xin has been thinking about the issue of releasing the prisoners, and she wants to hear Ye Qi's opinion.
"We will release the Xichang captives before we go to scout their terrain. This way, their morale will be disrupted and the camp will relax its vigilance. It will also not be easy to alert the enemy during our reconnaissance." Ye Qi said calmly.
"That's fine!" Bai Xin nodded and continued, "I've already taken care of the Xichang general's head. It's not rotten, so let them take it back together!"
"Madam!" Ye Qi was shocked when he heard this. He pulled her to him and held her in his arms, looking at her with a worried and angry expression.
"If we ask them to take the general's head back, wouldn't it make them very angry?"
"If they knew it was your idea, wouldn't that make you their target? If their morale is boosted and they send out a large army, how can I bear it if their target is you?"
"General, this kind of thing is a double-edged sword. If they can really boost morale and send their army directly out to play against you, then we will be less dangerous if we go into their camp to play against you!"
"If the Xichang army can really break through your defenses and capture me, it means..."
Bai Xin paused, looked at him deeply and said, "Then I can commit suicide by the moat to find you! I am willing to sleep with you in life and in death!"
"Xin'er! How could I let them break through my defense line!" Ye Qi was frightened by what she said, and his arms around her tightened.
"So, then there's no need to worry!" Bai Xin put her hands on his shoulders, hugged him, tilted her head to look at him and comforted him.
"To put it another way, if their psychological defenses collapse because of this and the seriously injured prisoners they take back, it will be beneficial to us!"
"Besides, the general's head must be sent to the main tent when you bring it back. In this way, you can go deep into the enemy's camp and let the rifles take you directly to the main tent. Catch the leader first. Once you capture the main general, the battle will be much easier!"
Bai Xin looked at him and said, although he didn't know whether this method was feasible, the enemy's headquarters was destroyed, which was their ultimate goal. Without a leader, no matter how well-trained they were, they would need some time to recuperate. Taking advantage of the situation and using trickery were also a way.
"Madam, you have taken such good care of me that I will feel dependent on you!"
Ye Qi stroked her face gently and looked at her with pity. He was so lucky to meet such a woman, with whom he could: get drunk together under the moon and flowers, and bind a blue dragon on the battlefield of yellow sand.
"Ah, General, no matter how good I am, it is just talk on paper. On the battlefield, the situation changes rapidly. We can only rely on the general to coordinate the overall situation and fight hard!"
Bai Xin looked at him and said with heartache.
"Yes, I will listen to you, Madam. I will have someone release the prisoners from Xichang first, and then we can go and scout their formation."
After Ye Qi finished speaking, he looked at her deeply, gently let her go and let her sit on the chair. He stood up and walked out of the tent to prepare to release the prisoners.
Bai Xin looked at his back and stroked her slightly aching heart. The change of fortune was still in its infancy. She just hoped that this battle would not be too difficult.
